Dental phobia causes many patients to avoid the dentist for years and even decades! According to the NHS, one in every four people in the UK suffers from dental fear, which can be hazardous to your oral health if you do not obtain timely care.
Overcoming your dental anxiety can seem like a steep mountain to climb, but every journey begins with small steps. We encourage patients to meet our Wolverhampton team and acquaint themselves with the dental practice before the appointment. Meeting our team will help you gain trust in us and our services, thereby making it easier for you to visit us for a check-up.
Dental hypnotherapy helps you to manage your stress and anxiety levels, bringing them to more controllable levels and allowing you to relax. Through a series of relaxation techniques and thought exercises, our registered clinical hypnotherapist Kerry Lewis will help you change your relationship with the dentist.
Something that scares most nervous patients is the thought of receiving treatment on their first consultation appointment. Regardless of the issue, your first dental appointment will always be just a check-up. The first appointment is often the hardest hurdle, but we will simply look at your teeth and advise from there.
Nervous patients will often avoid the dentist until they can’t bear the issue anymore. Visiting the dentist is vital because we can recognise and treat warning symptoms of minor and major issues. Get in touch with our friendly dentists in Wolverhampton today.
